Hey everyone, with the upcoming closure of lemm.ee I just wanted to say thank you to all the admins and mods of all the comms on .ca, and users! You all are what helps to make this the best instance of Lemmy! Doing those jobs for free can't be easy (admins/mods), what with all the douchebags that tend to populate the internet and make life harder for normal people that just want to chill. I know I certainly wouldn't have the patience to mod even a small comm, let alone help to be an admin of an entire instance.

I tend not to post or comment to much, always been that way, but I've been here since July of 2023 and I browse daily. The stability of this instance is awesome and I have nothing but respect for the admins that make this possible. The mods of all the .ca comms, and awesome users in general really help to make this the greatest instance on Lemmy.

Thank you to everyone, regardless of whether you're an admin, a mod, or just an average user posting their hot takes, shit posts, memes, and great discussion material etc.

Long live lemmy.ca!

As a mod of a few mostly quiet communities on lemmy.ca, I'd note that there isn't actually a lot of work involved. Like, I check the ModeratorView every few days just to make sure something didn't slip through my feed, read some comments, and then return to scrolling. I have never actually had to take a real moderator action. It's actually crazy how nice everyone is, even the ones that disagree with me :)

Like check the modlog on lemmy.ca -- it's not that busy.

Maybe the stereotype of us Canadians being too nice has some truth to it eh? 😅

Seriously though, I'm glad to hear that it's not just me that finds the .ca users to be quite pleasant overall!
